Rift Reporter Episode 45 – Everyday I’m Shovelin’……

This week we talk to Cindy aka Abigail from Trion about couples in gaming and their Guinness Book of World Records event on Valentines Day! And we talk about some of the new features to be found in Rift after the latest updates!

What we’ve done in game:

Sallennia

DH Raid with our guild, took 2 ½ hours but very little problems.

Ran XDSM, again. Got SHOE!!!! Finally!!!! on Sallen too!!!!

Ran Chris’ rogue through a bunch of onslaughts, only, he wasn’t around for most of it lol

Made Bill some raid crafted gear so he could do his first raid with us, yay!

Got my first Artisan Mark on Sallen, sad story :(

Had some more listeners join the guild and ran a few xdungeons with them. ROTF and FC.

Synovia : Thanks, yet again, for such a rapid response to a simple request from the community. People had been asking quite a bit for a checkbox in the guild UI that would allow them to filter people logged in via mobile and with today’s hotfix, you’ve delivered just that.

‘The Guild Roster tab now has a checkbox to show/hide members logged in on the mobile app.’

MORE HOTFIX UPDATES:

Added Guild Bankers to the Manufactory in Meridian and Bahralt Street in Sanctum.

* Characters should no longer seem to be sinking into the ground in some situations.

RIFT SOS

Wardrobe & Show/Hide inventory changes: Show/Hide option for Helmet and Shoulders are now gone from the main menu under Misc. The new wardrobe update has a box beside each slot to show or not show. Boxes are NOT on equipment slots. So…. If you wanted to show your epic armor, but not your super ugly helmet that came with it, you can not hide that helmet. Previously you could select your wardrobe slot and only have one piece equipped, and the remaining pieces would default to your armor (unless you hid helmet/shoulders) Now, any wardrobe slot un-ticked shows as Naked. Easy fix would be to add the show/hide boxes to the main armor slots. Problem fixed. In the mean time, be patient, I’m sure Trion is working on it, it’s been talked about a lot on the forums.
